Its a killer 1366 cooler too. I was using 120x38 Panaflo's on mine. Fucking beast. Their older coolers work best on older CPUs. Their new gen coolers are awesome on modern hardware. Well.. Intel seems to burn through any cooler, so no comment on them as I dont run modern Intel just yet. I am waiting for 14th gen to drop, so I can drop it in the board I have waiting

ya i ran it with 1366 x58 back in the day or atlest my dad did. until we custom water cooled for like $150 then later on full gpu block for another $100(hybrid was just not working with a gtx 280... ). and we both got 2x 360 rads. fans were gelid solutions SILENT 12 PWM my dad got em for $4.99 each at a time when pwm were new... but they were open box on ncix i guess thats why normally there like $20 i think. best $5 fan i used. they still work fine. could not justify gt fans at the time...

Sounds like a pretty cool dad. How old is he, mid 40s?
